hell yeah!

Okafor get's 4 :star from BRR.

 

[BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA]

#296 on their top 300. I'm sure he will improve on that with his performance this year because he will be more experienced. Didn't he first pick up a football just a couple years ago?

 

[husker rob]

he is going to be a good one from what i can see

This may be a dumb question, but does anyone know the correct pronunciation of Okafor? Is it a long or short O at the beginning? Is it a long or short A in the middle?

I've heard it as OAK-A-FOUR (short A in the middle)

OHkuhfer? Maybe that's just lazy and not really correct

Drop the e and insert an o and I think you got it.

Another one of our commits who comes a bit closer to reaching that 4th star on Rivals. Was bumped from his 5.6RR to now a 5.7RR for Collins.

Gray is more touted , but I think Collins is going to be a damned fine College player for us. A possible sleeper.

I think we have learned from the past year or two now that you need multiple RBs in the program...

That's right, you can never have enough good RB's considering this years situation. Sh*t happens.

i go to school with Collins and blocked for him back in his freshman year. he's tough to tackle and if you get the right blocking then he can break it loose into the secondary and get beyond that too. just wait to see him against Prep and against Millard North this year. then he'll have some tough defense to go against and he'll show why he's gonna be awesome. Westside will win state this year behind Okafor's running and an awesome defense.

USC, I love Okafor and glad he's gonna be a Husker, but I think State is Millard West's to lose, they are beating up some good teams right now... including the prep team you mentioned.

I'm sorry, but I have seen Prep play this year and they are awful. They should not be ranked. I attended the game against Central and they stunk the joint up. They don't have any team speed at all. They were lucky to only lose 28-12.
